Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great) How we rate


Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate L'Estrange London “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a high proportion of lower-impact material including recycled materials.
  • It uses low impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
  • To reduce its climate impacts, it uses renewable energy in its supply chain.
  • It avoids plastic packaging.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate L'Estrange London “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Most of its final production stage occurs in the European Union, a low/medium risk region for labour abuse.
  • There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate L'Estrange London “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • ZQ Merino Label certifies some of the wool it sources.
  • It doesn’t appear to use leather, down, fur, angora, exotic animal skin, or exotic animal hair.
